Asking in my English accent for a ticket from Glasgow to Carmyle when visiting an industrial site there, I had to emphasise it such that I didn't get one to Carlisle.

A century or most-of, ago; the confusion might have been made yet worse, concerning Carmyllie (Angus): terminus of the branch from Elliot Junction near Arbroath (passenger service withdrawn 1929).
